How to fix Korea's birthrate? Put girls in school earlier, controversial report argues ( koreajoongangdaily.joins.com )

"Notably, Chang's report claims that biological females develop earlier than males do, so requiring girls to enter school at younger ages will create classes in which the two sexes are of more equal maturity as they age. This, the author posits, makes it more likely that those classmates will be attracted to each other, and marry and have children further down the line."

"The report does not include evidence of any correlation between female students' early enrollment and the success rate of their romantic relationships with men. The author also does not detail specific mechanisms by which his proposed policy would increase romantic attraction or birthrates."

Our men need a handicap or they can't succeed

I would like to see a large scaled research on that statement, like I know women hit puberty sooner but does that really mean mentally they do as well. Is it more of how woman are rear vs men. I do wonder if we thought me about emotions/feelings and teaching them younger how to deal with emotions and to be more if that would even the gap. Does anyone have any good research I could parse?

According to my experience , girls start acting more imature when they hit puberty while boys acts more imature before they hit puberty in comparison to each other.

The sience on development in male female is correct. It obviously won't fix birth rates, like just fix your privatisation of housing. But I think it would be good to do regardless, maybe female 1 year sooner and male 1 year later or just male 2 year later. That way being in the same class they actually are able to study the same topics without any gender development impairments holding them back. Some studies are required.
